Performance Review:
The Dane is a BIG sword. It's really a two handed sword but for all that it's easily the most usable two handed sword that
it has been my privilege to handle. The sword weighs in at a hefty 4.7 lbs which for most swords would be decidedly
overweight and in the unusuable category. The Dane, however, is actually quite fast for being as large as it is and the only
time you really notice just how big it is comes when you accidentally start hitting the ceiling of your house. The
only other swords of this size that I have seen that were in the same realm as far as performance goes were high dollar
custom swords. The only thing I didn't like performance wise about this sword were the wire wrappings on the grip, not
because the are uncomfortable but rather because whatever wire Albion is using is very prone to rusting and they
are a pain to keep polished.

Appearance:
The Dane is up to Albion's usual quality standards. This particular model came with a nicely done green grip. The hilt
fittings were flawless and the fit and finish were top notch as was the blade.

Conclusion:
The Dane is a big yet lively sword which aesthetically is up to Albion's usual standards. If you like the look of the sword
as I do I would say that it is a very good purchase.
